Graduate students Garrett Prentice (Computer Science) and Anubhab Mahapatra (Computer Science and Management, Entrepreneurship & Technology) recently presented on the UNLV Cyber Clinic at the United Way of Southern Nevada’s Nonprofit Connection meeting. Nonprofit Connection is a monthly gathering that serves as a vital space for nonprofit leaders across Southern Nevada and features presentations from partners about their organization’s work and relevant resources for the sector. An estimated 30 non-profits attended the meeting.

The Clinic was invited by UWSN to share information about its no-cost cybersecurity services available to small businesses and non-profits. The UNLV Cyber Clinic’s dual purpose is to assist small businesses in better protecting themselves against cyber threats while providing hands-on experiences for students that will help them develop in-demand workforce skills.

For non-profits who are focused on their missions and lack the resources or time to devote to their organization’s cybersecurity posture, the Clinic can provide critical services. Team members meet individually with clients, analyze their business’ vulnerabilities and potential threats, and recommend controls to improve security.

Any small business or non-profit can reach out for no-cost cybersecurity services from the UNLV Cyber Clinic by emailing services@cyberclinicofficial.org.
